military standards.”

Anna kissed his chest and rubbed a finger over one of his nipples.

“I guess you saw a lot of bad things then, huh, Charlie?”

He rubbed her back as the memories flashed through his mind.

“I did. I saw things I’ll never talk about, Anna. It was a bad time

in my life.”

“You’re a hero, Charlie.”

“No, baby.”

Anna sat up and cupped his face in her hands. Her eyes were

glossy as she spoke.

“You are! Anyone who can serve his country to protect us here at

home and ensure our freedom is a hero. You gave up your family, the

safety and security of the United States of America, and a shitload of

other sacrifices, so you deserve the title.”

He smirked at her and the intensity of her tone.

“Too many bad things happened over there that I will never

forget. I was in bad shape when I returned. I nearly lost my brothers

and control of my own life.”

Anna caressed his lower lip with her thumb before she spoke.

“Then we have a lot in common, Charlie.”

“Yeah?”

She was silent a moment before she spoke. She was easy to talk

to, and she truly empathized with his emotions and need to hold back

details. He squeezed her a little tighter. He was falling in love with

her.

He waited for her response.

“You’re a survivor, Charlie, just like me.”

It was an intense moment they shared. He pulled her mouth to his

and kissed her softly. Before long, that kiss intensified, and all Charlie

could think about was making love to his woman.

For the Love of Anna

Charlie fisted his cock and aligned it with Anna’s pussy as she

lifted then took him fully inside of her, obviously needing him as

well.

Their lips separated for a moment as her head fell back. Charlie

took the opportunity to suck a nipple into his mouth as Anna rode

him.

He let her start the pace while he rubbed his hands over her back

then lower.

Their gazes locked again, and it was intense. So intense that

Charlie felt his chest tighten and his heart soar with appreciation for

the woman in his arms. There was no use fighting it, he and his

brothers would do anything for the love of Anna.

Anna wrapped her arms around Charlie’s neck and began licking

and biting him then blowing in his ear. Her thrusts grew deeper and

faster, causing water to spill over the edge of the tub. His cock was so

damn hard he knew he was about to explode.

“Ride me, baby. Fuck me good,” he ground out through gritted

teeth as he squeezed and separated her ass cheeks.

Rubbing the crevice, then the puckered hole, had Anna fucking

him harder, trying to get her release. Their lips locked again for an

explosive kiss as he pushed one digit in and began to match the

rhythm. They both found their release, moaning into the other’s

mouth then panting for air.

Anna laid her head against Charlie’s neck. Her whole body

tingled, and her heart pounded against her chest.

“Who’s going to clean this mess up?”

Both of them turned toward Ben, who now stood leaning against

the bathroom door, naked.

Anna felt herself blush as she started to move away from Charlie.

He wouldn’t let her and pulled her back against him.

“I’ll take care of it, don’t worry,” Charlie stated then kissed Anna

along her temple then forehead.

“It’s hot in here, too. It’s like a sauna,” he complained as he

headed toward them.

Ben reached out his hand for Anna to take it. She looked at

Charlie and smiled.

“Later,” he whispered.

“Later,” she replied as Ben lifted her from the tub.

Ben pulled her to him, and she tilted her head all the way back to

lock gazes with him.

“So, you overdid it, your ribs are sore, and then you ride Charlie

in the tub? You’re just asking for a spanking, ain’t ya, baby,” Ben

teased as he gave her ass a light tap.

Anna hugged him, loving the feel of his muscles against her

breasts.

“My turn, honey, but I have to shower first.”

Ben held Anna’s hand and headed into the shower.

* * * *

Charlie watched Anna cross the room. The sight of her bruises

made him angry, and it had been very difficult to see them when they

made love. If they ever got their hands on the assholes that hurt her,

he would be sure to make them regret their actions. He had learned

that Anna was a sweet and passionate young woman who had

struggled through life just barely making ends meet. She had taken a

chance in trusting him and his brothers, and he wouldn’t let her regret

that. She put up a tough front, but he knew she was hurting after the

long hours on her feet today. She would have to learn to confide in

them and not put her health in danger.

As he dried himself off then began cleaning up the mess around

the floor, he smiled. He’d never made love to a woman in a bathtub. It

was messy but well worth it.

For the Love of Anna

As much as he wanted Anna to lean on him and his brothers, he

was proud of Anna. She was strong, sexy, beautiful, and a fighter. He

may have gone through war in Iraq, but Anna had been through a war

right in her own home. Thank God she survived and made it to the

Triple C.

* * * *

Anna was feeling pretty tired as she leaned against the shower

wall and closed her eyes. Ben was washing the shampoo from his hair

after they thoroughly cleansed one another’s bodies. She smiled to

herself. Ben was so sexual she couldn’t help to think about the many

women she was certain he’d had sex with. He was a player, but he

was so damn cute and sexy, it didn’t matter, and boy, did he know it.

Whether he gave her a wink with his eye or nod of his head to come

to him or to acknowledge him, she did it without a second thought. He

had sex appeal, and he had a way of bringing out the sexual deviant in

her. Never once would she of thought about anal sex. But with Ben,

Charlie, and Wyatt, she wanted everything, and she wanted to give

them anything she could.

Despite her crazy first day at work, she was feeling better about

her life. Besides Stacy, she had her men to thank for that.

“What are you thinking about?” Ben asked as he pressed his body

against hers.

Anna wrapped her arms around his neck, stood on her tiptoes to

kiss his chin.

“I was thinking about you and your brothers and how lucky I am

to have you.”

Ben smiled, then squatted a little lower.

“How about I show you how lucky I feel to have you?”

He slowly slithered down her body, kissing her skin along the

way.

“The bruises are looking better,” he whispered as he kissed the

tender flesh softly before moving lower.

Ben lifted her leg to balance on his knee as he squatted in front of

her.

He had long, thick fingers, tanned from the sun and rough from all

the hard work on the ranch. They expanded across her toned legs. The

way those fingers stroked over her wet skin and the right amount of

pressure and show of possession from his fingertips, made her feel

needy.
Son of a bitch!
She really had it bad for Ben. She had it bad for

all three of them. As if one wasn’t enough, how the hell was she

going to handle three?

She watched as his eyes, transfixed on her mound, peeked up to

wink at her, the sexy bastard, before he stroked the folds with his

fingers.

The warm water sprayed over them, adding to the feelings he

drew from her.

Anna reached back to the wall for support as Ben placed his

mouth against her.

Have mercy! He was deadly, and he had her there in seconds.

Ben plunged his tongue inside her folds and pumped his finger in

and out of her, drawing more juices from her body.

“Sit back on the bench,” he demanded as he lifted her rear, tilting

her pussy closer to his mouth before she had a chance to move.

Anna forgot about the built-in bench. It was high, obviously

custom made for the men because Ben had to help her onto it.

The bathroom was bigger than the bedroom. They could have a

party in the shower, but that thought made her jealous.

Before she could ponder more about it, Ben rotated his finger then

added another digit. When she was nice and wet, he lifted her and

turned her body around to face the wall.

“Bend over the bench and rest your arms on it.”

Anna did as he said and leaned forward, her ass pointed up in the

air toward Ben and her forearms held her in position.

“Are you okay?” he asked as he leaned over her, reached between

her legs, and pushed his fingers into her again.

“Yes.” She panted.

He smoothed the palm of his hand over her ass cheeks then kissed

and nuzzled her neck and shoulder.

She felt Ben remove his fingers, and without thought, she pushed

back, needing him to touch her again. He chuckled next to her ear,

and the vibrations sent chills over her skin.

“I’m gonna love fucking you from behind, Anna. Your ass is just

the right size to hold, baby. You know…” He licked then nibbled her

earlobe as he reached under her to pull on her nipples. His warm

breath caressed her, and she closed her eyes, waiting for more.

“…I can be very demanding, and I have fantasies about the things

I’d like to do with you. Right now, taking you from behind in this

shower is only one of them.” Her insides quaked at his words as

moisture leaked from her mound.

“Oh, God,” she moaned, leaning forward just as Ben pushed his

cock against her entrance and rammed forward.

His growl echoed over the tile walls and through the room.

He took her from behind, thrusting forward as he pulled back on

her hips.

In and out, he increased his speed as Anna held on to the slippery

surface.

It felt so tight, and he was so deep this way, she couldn’t catch her

breath.

The sound of his balls slapping against her ass and the water

sucking in between them made her feel wild, resilient, and oh so very

sexy.

“Oh, yes, Ben, it feels so good.” She moaned then pushed back

against him.

“Slow down, or I’m gonna come.”

“Isn’t that the point?” she teased, sensing the frustration in his

tone.

She jumped as she felt the smack to her ass.

“Keep it up, smart-ass, and watch what I do to you.”

Her heart hammered inside her chest. Ben was so unpredictable,

so…

She held her breath as she felt his finger push into her anus.

Throwing her head back, she tried to breathe as the sensations of

being full tore through her.

“Not so mouthy now, are ya?” he growled next to her ear and

nibbled her earlobe.

Ben pushed in and out, rocking his hips and sending her closer to

climax. When he pulled from her body, she wanted to protest, but

then she felt his cock at her anus and waited in anticipation.

Slowly, he pushed through the tight rings and pressed fully up

against her. His arm held her around the waist as he thrust slow and

deep.

Anna opened her legs wider as Ben played with her clit and

pressed a finger into her channel.

She screamed her release, unable to stand on shaky legs. Ben held

her tight.

“I’m almost there, baby. Hold on for me,” he barely got out as he

pumped into her faster and faster. The water slapped between them,

the temperature cooled, and she wanted more of him.

Anna pushed back, and Ben shoved forward, pressing her against

the wall, and their fingers entwined.

He scraped his teeth across her neck and shoulder as he pumped

fast and furious into her until he exploded inside her.

“Fuck! Damn, Anna!” he yelled, then panted, out of breath, but

stayed inside her, gasping for air. It was a few moments before he

pulled from her body, turned her around so fast she felt dizzy, then he

squeezed her against his chest.

“That was fucking incredible,” he panted, holding her beneath the

cool spray of the water.

“Yeah…it sure was,” she replied, kissing his chest, loving the feel

of muscle beneath her lips.

She nibbled his nipple and lightly pulled on it.

Ben caressed her cheek and stared into her eyes when she lifted

her eyes to him.

“One fantasy down and about a trillion more to go,” he added,

squeezing the globes of her ass before swiping his finger over the

crevice.

Anna stirred in his arms.

Ben may just be the death of her…but what a way to go.

Chapter 13

It was a lovely, clear evening when Anna walked across the yard

and over to Stacy, Max, and Eric’s place. The men had headed over

earlier, once they woke her from her much-needed nap. Anna felt

pleasantly sore in all the right places, and amazingly, her ribs were
